The history of Ventalló and its surroundings

Due to its location, between wetlands and lowland, Ventalló has had settlements since the Neolithic. Although documented sites have been located there from the 1st century BC to the 8th century and it is known that it was a passage area for both the Greek and Roman Empúries, it is not mentioned until the 11th century, when it belonged to the county of Empúries. Most buildings and remains, however, are Romanesque and belong to the last four centuries.

IgnacioCan Roc - With the family

Exceptional house for family reunion

Very well equipped house, kitchen with everything necessary for a group of 15 people. Spacious rooms, different spaces for group eating, a shame about the stifling heat of the week and the mosquitoes did not allow us to use the gazebo next to the barbecue. super-kept garden and pool. Jaume (Gardener) and the super friendly pool maintainer gave us a lot of advice for activities in the area, a big hug for them. Justina is very attentive with cleaning and small incidents.

Tranquility and absolute disconnection

We have enjoyed the house and its facilities and I have to say that I think it is the house with more kitchenware and accessories than I have used on my vacation, nothing is missing, there are plenty of towels, pool towels, cleaning products and kitchen basics. I really recommend it, and I have to say that the owner is very friendly and accessible.
